One of Australia's most revered sportsmen, Brabham had been undergoing kidney dialysis three times a week in recent years.

Brabham claimed the F1 world championship in 1959, 1960 and 1966, the later famously in a car of his own design.

He is survived by his wife Margaret, sons Geoff, Gary and David and grandsons Matthew and Sam.
